I will be 2 weeks post op sleeve tomorrow. Someone please tell I'm not losing my mind. I can go from happy to wanting to cry. I have never been a feel sorry for me person. All I want to do is sit around. I have no energy and at the drop of a hat I am crying. Does this last very long? Didn't go hey this with my lapband. What is wrong with me?

This is very common. I couldn't even remember the last time I cried before I did so about two weeks post-op. Your hormones are all messed up, and you are burning fat which is releasing estrogen on top of that. It lasted a short period of time for me, maybe a couple days. I was 'bitchy' for a couple months after when I was loosing a lot of weight. No need to worry, you are completely normal at this stage. FWIW, I had a lapband done 5 years ago and didn't have this issue either.

You have no idea how relieved this post made me. I'm two weeks post-op, exhausted and cranky. Hope it's short term bc I am annoyed with myself at this point!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
